can't see a date on there viewmont, i'll have another look tomorrow in the daylight
theres Z38 cast on the bottom of the bottle - if that indicates anything?
i can see teeth marks around the lip on the top of the bottle, dunno if that was caused by the bottle cap or is cast that way
looking at the bottle in general, theres a few mould defects, pretty rough and ready in those days

those squidgey marks horizontally cast across the bottom waist on this greenie which was located using the R.A.L.D
method (rotary artefact locating device) AKA the slasher are the cast date 6 67.
Futher around the bottom waist is the (maker) crown corningware mark (looks like an upturned glass tumbler) and SD1 (bottle style) is printed near that.

Got a few old bottles here, no coke though. OH built an office block on the site of a long gone hotel. Digging the footings turned up quite a few really old bottles. I have just wrapped them up and put them away. I keep thinking I should go online to see what I have.
